Aal (English: Single Person) is a 2014 Indian Tamil-language action thriller film written and directed by Ananda Krishnan and produced by Vidiyal Raju. It stars Vidharth, Vidiyal Raj, and Harthika Shetty in the lead roles. The background score and soundtrack were composed by Johan Shevanesh. The film, released on 19 September 2014, is a remake of the 2008 Hindi film Aamir. Aal received good reviews from critics but failed in the box office sales.

Plot[edit]

The film is about the life of an ordinary man facing an extraordinary situation in a single day. The story starts in Sikkim and travels with a grip towards the climax in Chennai. The film screens about how the youngsters are brought to the terrorism. Amir (Vidharth) is an intelligent professor who has already been in love with Meenakshi (Hardika Shetty), who works in Sikkim. When Amir goes back to Chennai, he is blackmailed into joining a terrorist organization that would hold his family and Meenakshi captive. Then, the extraordinary things happen in one day.
